Got some help from a member - thanks angelpece!!! (S)he shared the following two newspaper articles from the Brooklyn Daily Eagle.
The first is from 4/9 noting that Eddie Ford would be pitching the first game of a double-header against the Bushwicks and the second is from 4/10 showing the box score from the game(s) on 4/9. Whitey got the win in the first game and, according to the article, scored from third on an errant pick-off attempt! http://fultonhistory.com/Newspaper%2...20-%207678.pdf http://fultonhistory.com/Newspaper%2...20-%207712.pdf; Neither article explains why he was wearing a Clippers uniform (instead of his Binghamton Triplets uniform), but at least the date and the venue on the back of the photo aren't completely made up as they line up perfectly with these articles!

I had someone remind me of this post from 2014.
RIP Whitey! And the dates in the post above should show 10/9 and 10/10, not 4/9 and 4/10. Oops! I feel icky editing a post from 6 years ago (if I even can).

I love old minor league snapshots. You can pick 'em up for a song, and each one is tougher to find than just about any baseball card. Here's Yogi and Bobby Brown with Newark during the same era ...

Nice, I have a few Newark Bears and Jersey City Giants snapshots in one of my binders somewhere. I love them too.
